The Edinburgh Academy

6th /7th

The combination of subjects available in the 6ths is limited by the need to timetable five blocks of seven periods into a 38 period week. Thousands of permutations are in fact possible, but even so you may not find your preferred combination is available. Please note also that once all choices are in, we reserve the right to delete any course which is under-subscribed.

6ths choose one subject from each of the five 6ths blocks A-E.

(1) This is the scheme for 2008-9 only; it will change in 2009-10.

(2) For those 6ths who expect to continue to A-Level in the 7ths, it is important to bear in mind the 2009-10 A-Level blocking in the right-hand column, which is already fixed. You can continue all subjects to A-Level in the 7ths except those asterisked *, but again not all combinations are possible.

(3) English is compulsory for all pupils except those taking Further Maths; Further Maths is only available to those also taking Maths AS-Level.
